A Court Appointed Orange County Judgement Enforcement Receiver Is Here to Help
FedReceiver, Inc. professionals have been appointed in connection with millions of dollars in judgments on behalf of creditors. These cases are often complex and contentious, requiring a specialized skill set that includes quick action, asset searches, and the use of forensic accountants, private investigators, and computer forensic experts. Our team brings the experience and resources necessary to enforce judgments efficiently while ensuring compliance with court directives.

Here’s how our Orange County Judgment Enforcement receivers can help you:
The enforcement of judgments is governed by the California Code of Civil Procedure §708.620, which outlines circumstances under which a receiver in aid of execution may be appointed. In addition, §708.510(a) allows the court to order a judgment debtor to assign payment rights to a receiver—including rents, commissions, royalties, insurance policy loan values, or even government wages not subject to garnishment. Once appointed, a receiver has the same powers as the creditor to collect on the judgment.
